Field Development & Production Engineering II: Economics, HSE, and Surface Facilities Engineering

EART30901 Field Development & Production Engineering II: Economics, HSE, and Surface Facilities Engineering 10 Semester 1 Undergraduate Level 6 Ian Kane Unit coordinator Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' Last part of a Bachelors ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 5.0 <div> This unit is designed to build core skills related to the interpretation and acquisition of geological data and its utilization in the oilfield business environment, project and development economics and engineering. By using case studies with geological data the students will appreciate the utility and value of a wide range of subsurface datasets.This course unit detail provides the framework for delivery in 20/21 and may be subject to change due to any additional Covid-19 impact.  Please see Blackboard / course unit related emails for any further updates.</div>   <div> This unit is designed to build core skills related to the interpretation and acquisition of geological data and its utilization in the oilfield business environment, project and development economics and engineering.

Exercises use real-world oil field problems and serve to apply theoretical knowledge into practice. The contents are assessed via examination which requires students to apply knowledge to an unknown problem, research key information themselves, and integrate. Informal feedback on formative exercises is available during lectures and practical exercises. The exam scripts can be viewed at the start of semester 2..</div> </div>   1 Written exam 100%   <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="height: 68px; width: 102px"> Assessment type</td> <td style="height: 68px; width: 85px"> % Weighting within unit</td> <td style="height: 68px; width: 66px"> Hand out and hand in dates</td> <td style="height: 68px; width: 94px"> Length </td> <td style="height: 68px; width: 170px"> How, when and what feedback is provided</td> <td style="height: 68px; width: 123px"> ILO tested</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="height: 35px; width: 102px"> Examination</td> <td style="height: 35px; width: 85px"> 100</td> <td style="height: 35px; width: 66px">  </td> <td style="height: 35px; width: 94px"> 2 hrs</td> <td style="height: 35px; width: 170px"> Open book, online assessment</td> <td style="height: 35px; width: 123px"> all</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>   B.Eng in Petroleum Engineering B.Eng in Petroleum Engineering Third Year Mandatory M.Eng in Petroleum Engineering M.Eng in Petroleum Engineering Third Year Mandatory Y Gluyas J and Swarbrick R 2004 Petroleum Geoscience.
